Evaluating digital experimental tasks for physics laboratory courses
(Deutsche Physikalische Gesellschaft, 2023)
As physics laboratory courses are an integral part of studying physics, many approaches have been pursued to evaluate their quality e.g., regarding the improvement of conceptual understanding, the students’ motivation, or ...
Evaluating responses to temperature during pre-metamorphosis and carry-over effects at post-metamorphosis in the wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis)
(The Royal Society Publishing, 2019)
Insect metamorphosis is one of the most recognized processes delimiting transitions between phenotypes. It has been traditionally postulated as an adaptive process decoupling traits between life stages, allowing evolutionary ...
Evaluating the potential for evolutionary mismatch in Batesian mimics : a case study in the endangered Smooth Snake (Coronella austriaca)
(Wiley-Blackwell Publishing, Inc., 2018)
Many harmless organisms gain a survival advantage by mimicking venomous species. This is the case of the endangered smooth snake (Coronella austriaca), which mimics venomous vipers. Although this may protect the smooth ...
Evaluating the predictive performance of presence–absence models : Why can the same model appear excellent or poor?
(John Wiley & Sons, 2023)
When comparing multiple models of species distribution, models yielding higher predictive performance are clearly to be favored. A more difficult question is how to decide whether even the best model is “good enough”. Here, ...
Evaluating the viability of ethylenediamine-functionalized Mg-MOF-74 in direct air capture : The challenges of stability and slow adsorption rate
(Elsevier, 2024)
Carbon removal technologies, such as direct air capture (DAC), hold great potential in mitigating anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Amine-tethered metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) that capture CO2 selectively via chemisorption ...
Evaluation of a Chemistry Concept Inventory for general chemistry students at Finnish university
(University of Oslo Library, 2020)
A chemistry concept inventory (Chemical Concept Inventory 3.0/CCI 3.0), previously developed for use in Norwegian universities, was tested and evaluated for use in a Finnish university setting. The test, designed to evaluate ...
Evaluation of radiation stability of electron beam irradiated Nafion® and sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) membranes
(Elsevier Ltd., 2022)
Proton exchange membranes (PEM), which have been commonly used in fuel cells have raised interest for the application in harsh environments involving ionizing radiation. Therefore, radiation stability and ability to sustain ...
Event plane determination with the new ALICE FIT detector
(Sissa Medialab, 2021)
During the on-going second long shutdown of LHC, the forward detectors of the ALICE experiment are implementing an extensive upgrade. In particular, a new Fast Interaction Trigger (FIT) has been designed and built. It ...
Event-by-event fluctuations in a perturbative QCD + saturation + hydrodynamics model: Determining QCD matter shear viscosity in ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions
(American Physical Society, 2016)
We introduce an event-by-event perturbative-QCD + saturation + hydro (“EKRT”) framework for
ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions, where we compute the produced fluctuating QCD-matter energy densities
from next-to-leading-order ...
Event-by-event picture for the medium-induced jet evolution
(EDP Sciences, 2017)
We discuss the evolution of an energetic jet which propagates through a dense quark-gluon plasma and radiates gluons due to its interactions with the medium. Within perturbative QCD, this evolution can be described as a ...
